We make shoes
for fairies!
round St. Patrick’s Day, you
will often hear legends
about leprechauns
and their pot of
gold at the end of the
rainbow. Have you
ever wondered
where they get
all of that gold?
So, we are always busy making
new shoes for them. And they pay
us in gold – LOTS of gold!

Their shoes wear out
very quickly because
fairies dance all night.

W
hat if the leprechaun spent more gold coins to make
the shoes than he charged the fairies? He would run
out of gold pretty quickly!
Just making and selling shoes isn’t
enough to collect the gold needed
to fill a leprechaun’s pot.
Leprechauns have to keep
an eye on the costs of
making fairy shoes, too.
If it costs 7 gold coins for the
supplies to make one pair of
fairy shoes, what should the
leprechaun charge so that
he covers his costs and has
some money left over to
pay himself for his work
to make the shoes?
Take a look at the cost
of shoe supplies on
this list.

50 gold coins!?
That’s way too
expensive for me!
